I made that comment whilst mobile and wanted to add more but had no time… so I’m returning now to state that I absolutely adore the blouse with the bows. I would love to have that piece in my wardrobe. Oh how that motivates me to make the most money possible. Clothes motivate me.

Clothes motivate me too. The first time I went to Paris, my prior visiting place was the Chanel boutique! I was actually trembling of the excitement when I saw all those clothes on hangers. It was better than any museum ever.

I liked this! It’s nice to see your inspirations. I’m not a fan of WIAW posts. I don’t read many ED or healthy living blogs, but I do read a lot of fashion blogs so I like this kind of thing. Also, I get the feeling you are also obsessed with nails. 🙂

“Also, obsessed” means that we share similar passion, right Lola? It’s more of the mania to me! I think I should make a post on this!
Can you please provide me with a couple of links to your favorite fashion blogs. I view just a few of them, so I’d appreciate refreshing my mind with something new.

Yes, I believe we share a similar passion. I’m a total nail polish addict! I can’t stand having my nails not done and go to the salon weekly. I actually hate getting them done, but I love the results. Anyway, fashion blogs. I could give you a million links…

i can totally imagine you working as a lifestyle columnist for a major magazine, like vogue~ (well, maybe not vogue, because i think it would be too triggering to work there. not the best place if you are trying to recover from ED… so perhaps a lifestyle magazine?)

I would die to work for Vogue!
I have worked as a stylist for “L‘Officiel“(http://www.lofficiel.lt/) Lithuania. It’s a Lithuanian version of French magazine. I was quite good, but I quit due to bulimia. I couldn’t maintain two passions at a time. Yeap, I was so dedicated to my illness, I decided to quit my job. So sad!
I’m not sure I will and if I want to resume the same carrier again.

OMG I LOVE THIS!!! The baroque flavor of pics #3, #4, #9, and #11! The ancient stone columns being a part of the interior design in pic #1! And most of all, the old piano in pic #2! I imagine it must sound terrible, but oh my it’s so so so pretty! I want it! 😀 Please Greta, make this a series! I’d totally love it! (I also find it far more inspiring than food.) 😀

I have new passion for pianos, Kath. Recently I spend a lot of time wondering into antique shops and every time I look for pianos. Most of them are no good for playing, but there’s this power in them to create so much joy, even touching them inspires me so much. Yes, I’m thinking of buying one (not the antique one!) So, I’m just looking for a friend. 😉

Oh that’s wonderful that you want to buy a piano! If you do, please consider the following:

– the sound should be nice (you have to like it :D)
– the keys should neither be too hard not too easily to press: when you need effort to press them down then you’re at the risk of hurting your hands and it’s frustrating because you won’t be able to play fast, but when they already move down from the slightest touch of your fingertips they won’t offer a wide range of possibilities to shape the sound
– you should be able to produce very quiet and very loud tones with different degrees of pressure on the keys, because you’ll only learn how to create different nuances of sound when the piano gives you feedback appropriately (with pianos that sound the same regardless of how you’re playing them you won’t learn that – however, this means that in the beginning, it may be a little more difficult to make the music sound like you want because you have to play with more accuracy of touch)
– you have to feel well when you sit down at it and like it overall, also its looks etc

Have you found a piano teacher yet? I’m so sad I live too far away, but I’m actually thinking about making video lessons for you. (Just for you because they won’t be perfectly edited, I don’t have the time for that, but I can show you some things so you can get into playing more easily. It helps a lot with learning to watch and observe.)

OMG, Kath! Thank you for those tips. I appreciate you wanting me to help but please don’t bother (at least for now) I know how busy you are. When I’ll buy “a friend” and start some lessons, I will definitely need some advice from you. I can’t even imagine you offering me such remarkable thing. You are so beyond amazing!

I’m enjoying seeing your favorites. I would like to browse in the place that has those lovely lace items. The pianos looked sad as I can’t imagine they would be in tune for playing.

What inspired me today was reading your blog and a few others….hearing people speak their truth.

I also got a lift from working at a friend’s farm part of the day. By the way, they named their farm: Inspiration Farm!! I go help out and get to ask questions about gardening and get a share of what ever is ready to harvest. We had a beautiful sunny day too.

Wow, I can imagine you have the most amazing friends who name the farm “Inspiration Farm!” How much goodness there must be!? You are so lucky to be able to visit such amazing places to be inspired.
And the blogs! I remember when I was stumbling at some amazing one; I desired to read it all! Sometimes it was impossible and I was losing the track of posts and pages. Sometimes they disappointed me, but usually gave so much courage to live and be better and heal.

Greta you’re so classy 🙂 I love love LOVE the last picture, the dramatic room and the shopping bags… classic French sophistication…gorgeous. I love a bit of interior design 🙂 And the old piano! I hope you do more of these posts, i’m not a big fan of WIAW but WIMW is lovely 🙂 xx

I’m Greta. I live in a small country in Europe. I am recovering from an eating disorder. But this blog is not only about that. It’s a cozy corner of my little life, full of passions for fashion, food, books and movies. Oh, and coffee... Coffee is the best thing to douse the sunrise with.
